Sure. The unrestricted life tenant can do anything on the property he or she wants to, except perhaps waste or encumber it, for as long as he or she lives. This could include, for example leasing it to someone else entirely.

It's as if the life tenant "owns" the property, but only for life.

Must a parent with lifetime rights sign sale contract?

You mean a contract to sell a property in which the parent has a life estate? No. If the children want to sell their future interest in the property, it is separate from the rights of the parent with a life estate. Similarly, the children do not need to be asked if the the parent wants to sell (or mortgage) his or her life estate to someone else. On the other hand, if the buyers want clear title, with no life estate, then you have a different problem: terminating the life estate, by merging it with the future estate, and what's in it for you?

What rights do children have when the parent dies in Louisiana but stills owes money?

Can a child have the rights to their parents' property if in jail?

Generally, being incarcerated does not take away a person's property rights. However, if there is a mortgage to pay, property taxes, insurance and utility bills, the property could be lost for non-payment. If you are dwelling in the property and paying for the upkeep and maintenance, then you should request your parent transfer ownership to you. If you need to manage the property for your parent then he/she must execute a Power of Attorney that names you as the attorney-in-fact. That would give you the authority to stand in for your parent, sign your parent's name and manage the property. The parent could also transfer ownership to the children if he/she will be incarcerated for a long time. The situation changes when a parent is found criminally responsible for the death of the other parent. In that case the incarcerated parent's right to any marital property is wiped out and title passes to the children. You should seek the advice of an attorney in your area who could review your situation and determine what your rights and options are.


Can you receive a partial inheritance before death of parent?

No. You have no rights in a parent's property while they are living. An inheritance comes from the property a decedent owns at the time of death. Death makes that property 'inheritable'. There is no such thing as an inheritance from a living person.
